:face-approve:Greetings Dino........
Pot washing can be a really useful exercise for peeps to get their eye in I agree. I also feel however, that when rained off, could we not involve fieldies in post-ex analyses and walk them through the process of writing up sites? If it was my budget, I would use archaeologists (on rained off days) in such a way that the time spent enhanced their abilities. Paying archaeologists to wash pot and polish bits of broken goat doesn`t really make sound business sense to me. Good to hear that at least some inspection of records took place! It has to be said though that monitors should by rote be examining the standard of work-not just that the work actually exists! Its also well known that an office rarely "fails" an ISO as days if not weeks in advance.....all hell breaks loose to get everything in order!
